Product Code: 306538 Categories: Chemicals, Liquids, Curing Compounds Manufacturer: Dayton Superior

The Dayton White Wax Cure CRD300 is a premium, water-based wax curing compound designed to ensure the optimal curing of freshly laid concrete. Formulated with high solids and reflective white pigments, it retains moisture necessary for proper cement hydration while keeping the concrete surface cool. This process is critical for achieving maximum concrete strength and durability.

The CRD300 creates a non-porous membrane that seals the concrete surface, preventing rapid moisture loss. This is especially important in conditions of high temperature, low humidity, and high winds, which can lead to premature drying and surface defects like shrinkage cracking and reduced strength. The white pigmentation reflects the sun's heat, lowering the concrete's temperature and reducing thermal stress.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Moisture Retention: Effectively seals in water to ensure complete hydration of the cement, which is crucial for developing the concrete's full design strength.
• Heat Reflection: White pigments reflect solar radiation, keeping the concrete cooler and minimizing thermal cracking.
• Enhanced Durability: Promotes a stronger, more durable, and abrasion-resistant surface by preventing premature drying and crazing.
• Easy Application: Can be applied smoothly and evenly with standard spraying equipment.
• VOC Compliant: Water-based formula with a V.O.C. content of <100 g/L, meeting strict environmental regulations.

Applications: The White Wax Cure CRD300 is ideal for a wide range of applications where a high-quality cure and surface protection are required, including:

• Pavements and roadways
• Sidewalks and patios
• Parking structures and driveways
• Airport runways and taxiways
• Industrial floor slabs
• Architectural concrete surfaces

Application Instructions:

1. Preparation: Apply immediately after the final finishing operations are complete and the surface water (bleed water) has disappeared. The concrete surface should still be damp.
2. Application Method: Apply using a low-pressure power sprayer equipped with a fan-pattern spray tip. A hand-pump sprayer can also be used. For best results, maintain continuous agitation in the sprayer to ensure the material is uniform.
3. Coverage Rate: Apply at a rate of 200 ft²/gallon (4.9 m²/L). A single, even coat is sufficient. Do not over-apply.
4. Drying Time: The membrane will typically dry in 1-2 hours, depending on temperature, humidity, and airflow. Protect the surface from rain for at least 4 hours after application.

Technical Specifications:

• V.O.C. Content: <100 g/L
• Solids Content: High solids formulation
• Base: Water-based wax emulsion
